PURPOSE: We determined whether anti-transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) intervention
could halt the progression of established radiation-induced liver fibrosis (RILF). METHODS …

Head retention, proteinase activity, and protein content in unpasteurized beer stored at
different temperatures for different storage times were tested. Analysis of variance indicated …

Objective We present a new technique of 3-dimensional computed tomography–guided
interstitial (IS) brachytherapy (BT) for locally advanced cervical cancer, offering a more …

Yeast proteinase A from fresh beer was first purified with Sephadex G‐100 column
chromatography and the active fractions reached to 5.3‐fold purification with 7% of yield …

Purpose: Locally recurring cervical cancer after surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy remains
a major therapeutic challenge. This paper presents a new therapeutic technique for such …

Purpose To explore the dosimetric advantage of target volume and surrounding normal
tissue by using interstitial (IS) brachytherapy (BT) based on three-dimensional CT in locally …

The objectives of the study were to investigate the functional role and potential mechanism
of wild-type p53-induced phosphatase (Wip1) in cervical cancer cell line HeLa cells, along …

Yeast proteinase A is detrimental to beer foam. The proteinase A deficient transformant of
industrial brewing yeast, WZ65/a, was constructed using PCR-mediated gene disruption …

The aim of this study was to determine whether caffeine enhanced radiosensitization in an
orthotopic transplant of LM3 human hepatocellular cancer in nude mice. LM3 hepatocellular …

Purpose: To investigate the regenerative capacity and proliferation related to cell cycle
modulators in irradiated livers after partial hepatectomy (PH) in rats. Methods and materials …
